So well done and not reaching too far. Can I put you on retainer for mine?
Grifter supreme, indeed.
I grew up hating the sixers, back when it was easy to get tickets to the Garden. Russell > Wilt, Sam Jones > Hal Greer. Later too but nothing about sports is as important after age 12.
The declaration of the Assumption (1950) is one of two explicitly ex cathedra statements ever made by a Pope. It's the way the Church, given five years to think about it, responded to the chaos and genocide of WW2. Did you know that if you swim in the ocean on August 15, fest of the Assumption, you're guaranteed not to drown for the next 365 days? You're welcome.
I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to say hi to you at the service, Mr. McQuade (though I did get to speak to Mrs. McQuade, briefly.) I'm so sorry for this loss for all of us, but especially for you, Denise, Jan and Simon.
What a beautiful portrait of a clearly dear friend, thank you for sharing. So sorry for your loss and cheers to your amazing friendship.
Thanks so much.
This is a beautiful tribute. In just a few words, the light your friend brought into the world shines out from the page. May he rest in peace.
Thanks for reading! And thanks for these nice words.
Really good piece, Sebastian. You described him so well I can see he would have loved reading this.

I laughed so hard at all the bad ledes. Thank you for that. And for the beautiful memories of Dan.
Thanks, Sub

It's so hard to write this kind of tribute, but you did an amazing job
Thank you — that means a lot!
So sorry you lost your friend. He sounds excellent.
Thank you, Evie. He was a real mensch.
